Smelling the flowers
Enjoying the waves,
No one knew what one's future could be.
With a half ticked bucket list,
half baked dreams
No one really perceived the fear coming

With the entire world under a roof
millions dying everyday ,
days became months since
the warm rays brushed the skin,
the gentle sea splashed the feet.
With distancing and protection
seeing loved ones,
became a distant dream.

But, with the burden of the lost
we merely missed our small growth,
on these days of self time.
We did things we never knew
left things we never thought.
Through all the traumas and overthinking
some found selves.
With the cloud of virus
listening new music
we started realizing life.

Fears got broken and virtual promises grew,
some began to stick their broken pieces into two.
Some conversed more and some preferred silence,
enjoying the crown of clouds from the top.

Still admist the changes
my heart feels dull
missing some smiles and some habbits of the past
Still having a hope in the heart
One day we will win against the clutches of death
breaking free like a bird.
